Quick & Easy Chicken Noodle Soup

I made this chicken noodle soup a few weeks ago when we were all battling a cold. It never fails that when I start to come down with something I quickly get upstaged by my kids, and if my husband gets it, it’s all over. That is exactly what happened this time around too.

Just when we all get over the cold though, Isabella got sick again. This time it’s her tonsils. When she was two years old she had a peritonsillar abscess that required emergency surgery; up until then she had never even had an ear infection or anything more than a runny nose. It was awful. Now here we are four years later with the same thing. Since this is her 2nd occurrence, her ENT has recommended we remove her tonsils and adenoids.

I had pretty much prepared myself for that and was expecting it when he said it. Isabella’s response on the other hand was that she “likes her tonsils!” and doesn’t want to get them taken out. Didn’t help our case when James and I both still have ours. Of course she doesn’t remember having surgery before (something I will never forget), so I am dreading explaining this whole process to her. Did I mention it’s next week? Like, while we are unpacking in our first week in the new house? Gah!

So I’m dishing up this soup to everyone that needs a bowl right now. Whether you are sick or overwhelmed (or both, Hello!) take a minute to make this soup. I used a stock “helper” and rotisserie chicken to make this even easier! So easy, so yummy, and so much better than soup from a can.

So sorry to hear that your little one has to have surgery. My little guy was only 2 when he had to have surgery, I was a mess. I hope all goes well!
I am having a hard time getting my boys to eat soup, but this might bring them around, it looks so good!
